HO GEN GP39-2 PH IIB Locomotive BNSF #2727 (ATHG-1966)

Introducing the HO-scale GP39-2 Phase IIb Locomotive in BNSF livery, number 2727. This four-axle diesel road-switcher faithfully reproduces EMD’s GP39-2 design for HO layouts, delivering prototypical shape and detailing that bring freight yards and mainline runs to life.

Designed for realistic operation, it features a Genesis-style drive with a five-pole motor, a heavy die-cast frame, and precision gearing for smooth, quiet performance and strong pulling power. The model includes LED lighting with lit number boards, see-through cab windows, a full interior, and fine Celcon handrails, with body-mounted McHenry scale knuckles (Kadee-compatible) for reliable coupling. DCC-ready Quick Plug plug-and-play technology with a 21-pin NEM connector enables easy digital operation, and it runs on both DC and DCC layouts. Road-number specifics for #2727 include a low-nose front headlight and a strobe beacon (strobe effect in DCC), plus modeler-applied remote antenna equipment. A heavy die-cast frame provides extra traction, and a minimum 18-inch radius keeps it compatible with a wide range of HO layouts.
